SNICKERS – The Perfect Candy Bar and a Good Horse
SNICKERS – The Perfect Candy Bar and a Good Horse
Blessed with a sweet tooth since childhood, I have a fondness for Snickers candy bars. A Snickers bar was always the ideal treat to pack along on various adventures. I remember bike rides with my mom and brother as a boy and our lunch breaks under the pines on dusty Garboni Road, always a Snickers bar for dessert. And trick-or-treating on Halloween. A Snickers bar was the most prized of your haul. 09/06/2023 23:00
